What is your opinion regarding sin?

Question

Isn't Jesus believed to have said "Go and sin no more". Don't we all sin everyday in some way? If so, how can we sin no more?

Answer 1

don't practice sin. Many people say, well we are going to sin anyway, God understands - they make excuses and justify their sin.
Yes, we are all going to fall at times- but look at the difference between Saul and David- why was David a man after God's own heart and Saul had to die??
In my opinion, David's sins were much worse than Sauls-but again, we look at the outer, God looks at the heart, so let's look a little deeper.
What happened when Saul sinned and was confronted by it? He made excuses, justified his disobedience- exalted himself above God and his plan above God's will. There was no repentence and he was intent on 'practicing' sin- Saul would not receive instruction and correction.

So what about David?? When David was confronted with his sin- he never once tried to make justification or excuse for it. David immediately repented and never once rejected the correction and discipline that he brought upon himself through his actions. He embraced the rod of correction and let it change him, determining in his heart not to go that route again. He exalted God's will and plan above his own and though he fell numerous times, never once did he point the finger, justify or disregard his sin.

Now we have a choice- yes we are going to fall into all manner of temptation and we will sin- but are we going to practice sin - when we are corrected are we going to have the black and rebellious heart of Saul or are we going to have the humble and repentent (turniing away from sin) heart of David! We have set before us the choice- life or death- choose life - go and sin no more - go and choose not to practice sin, choose not to be comfortable in that sin, choose not to justify that sin anymore and walk in the freedom of God's perfect instruction!

Answer 2

He said this to the women who was about to be stoned to death for committing adultery.
He meant "repent" and don't keep on sleeping with that married man.
When you keep on committing the same sin over and over, that is wrong, you need to turn from your sin.
Everyone will tell a lie, slip up in some kind of sin, were humans. Sin is inevitable.

Answer 3

I think its a common practice to INVENT a problem so you can sell them the solution.

I dont believe in sin, or guilt, or anti-aging facial products.

Jesus also said Matt 10:34 "Do not think that I came to bring peace on earth. I did not come to bring peace but a sword."

Answer 4

Yes your are right.
Vedic literatures states that those acts that lead to suffering either immidiate or in future, is Sin.
So the way to sin no more is to know those acts and to stop doing them.

Answer 5

The Sufis say sin is knowing what you should be doing, and not doing it. I should be meditating but I am watching movies.
Sin is whatever deviates you from God.
The Spirit is willing but the flesh is weak.
You must submit to His will, if you do what He says, you will not sin. (as easy)

Answer 6

I have never read in the bible where is says that to sin is 'human'. Jesus is able to keep you from falling into temptation, therefore keeping you from sin. It is possible to live a sin-free life with Jesus. "BE YE HOLY, FOR I AM HOLY" "I CAN DO ALL THINGS THROUGH CHRIST WHO STRENGTHENS ME." "NOW UNTO HIM WHO IS ABLE TO KEEP YOU FROM FALLING".........
